Glad to see people discussing abt forgiveness. It is an issue we
all, whether christians or not, struggle with. The fact that for
all of us is that we do not need to seek forgiveness, we just have
to acknowledge it because Jesus has already buried our sins, past,
present and future, when he died and was buried and then we are
raised as a new man like Him when He was resurrected 3 days later.
We are forgiven, we just have to accept that fact.
But even if we are not toking about a religious context here, i
think forigiveness is a social issue that humans seem not able to
handle well. The issue of when to forgive? Do we forgive and
forget? and What is to forgive in the first place? It is not
something that can be easily described or taught by a few simple
words. it is by forgiving that u learn to forgive. It is by being
forgived u learn to forgive. Forgiveness brings forth a sense of
contentment and release. We may not forget the hurt but we choose
to move on, we choose to give the person, ourselvess another chance
to do it right all over again. No one is perfect, but thru
forgiving each others faults, we can spur each other to edge closer
to perfection.
